Hey everyone. I'm trying to help a friend with his 2014 Mazda 5. I am almost done rebuilding the 2.5 engine, but can't set timing because there are no timing marks. I am stuck and need some help. Alldata sucks on this so idk what to do. Anyone know where the timing marks are and the cam positions? Thanks again.

 

Is the engine the old L5 engine or the newer skyactiv PY engine?

 

It's the 2.5 dohc in the 2014 Mazda 5.non turbo.

 

2.5 LF engine or 2.5 PY engine??????

 

What do you mean? It's a 2.5 duel overhead cam engine. 4 cylinder

 

The engine does say Ford and not Mazda on the engine. It is non turbo too

 

Look at the engine and write down the engine number thats stamped into the block. This will tell you what the engine is.

 

Okay. Will do. I'm going to his home now

 

I guess it's the L5 engine.

 

So grim reaper, what would be the correct cam gear position and cam position for top dead center? The engine has been rebuilt, but I have not set timing yet as I can't find any info on it.
